Bet on number 7 in the second race if you live across from the track....No really.....One oddball I have read in a couple of books and even online (here and elsewhere) that may have some merit is juding a potential property/tenants by their vehicles....( not the only metric for sure but just one observable factor of many to consider along with all the other data points and best practices).If the place you are looking at has a bunch of older inefficient, beater cars in the lot, this may be a management issue (leaking oil, immobile cars, unsightly) AND also eating up the tenants monthly paychecks in repairs, fuel, etc. 

I'm not a CPA either so take that with a grain of salt, but I don't see an issue with this.I guess the only issue I would see if you have C or S Corp...if you have an LLC you should be fine.

If a person owns 6 properties and averages a 0% vacancy rate in his 3 A locations but a 10% vacancy in his 3 C or D locations, should he use the average of 5% vacancy rate if he is going to buy another property in a A location?   

I am also considering a MFH unit consisting of 5-10 units in a C or B class area near the city.

Would they need to report the entity's income in their individual Schedule C or form 1065 (partnership return)?

Based on that you probably could max out at $400K and that is with good credit and history of doing properties.This will definitely put you in the C or D class neighborhoods. 

Savannah, Providence all along 380 I have noticed seems to alway have an inventory of rentals but are in a different school district as you might expect.I bet on Gunter, but I'm watching it carefully.  

Instead of pointing you in the right direction LOL code for call me  :) just being factious.try these lendersLima OneLendingoneRealty shares LendinghomEPeak Cogo CapitalI bet one of them will fill the needgood luck

Just not interested in C- (or maybe D) type properties and tenants.

That is why you frequently see on here that real estate should generally not be held in a Corp, whether C or S Corp as getting real estate out of the Corp triggers taxes.
